Last night the secretary from my favorite high school called me in a panic. Evidentally some teachers had gone to a conference and their planes had gotten delayed, leaving her with missing teachers, and in need of subs. So today I got to sleep in then just walk to work. And the plans left were easy. Have the kids keep working on their project and put episodes of Planet Earth on for background noise. Though one class was human growth and development, and they had to read a section on abstinence and we watched a lifetime movie about teens sleeping around and getting stds. So that was . . . . Interesting to say the least.

Inalso spoke with the ACP (special needs) teachers. One of them is going down for sugery, and they need a long term sub. The secretary had asked me to think about it last week, and I was unsure about taking the job. I live teaching art to the acp kiddos, but to be their teacher all day for a variety of subjects is a whole different ball game. But the kiddos they have aren't violent or runners, they,the schedule, and the content is something I think I can handle. So I told them I would take the job. And I've already got a long term for when one of the art teachers has her baby. So for 4 months I will be able to just walk to work. That will save me so much money not having to gas up my car, and I won't have to spend 30 minutes commuting either.
